———————————————————————————

BITCOIN (BTC)

BTC is priced at 94,400 with a 1.49% gain as of the morning hours. The price is currently trading at 94,375.40 and has approached the previously tested support line at 93,283.72. Maintaining this level may increase the price’s potential for recovery. However, if a close occurs below this level, the price is likely to pull back to 86,628.74. In upward movements, the price can be expected to rise again towards the resistance zone at 98,000. However, if it cannot maintain its presence above the resistance zone, the price may face pullbacks. In particular, the psychological resistance level of 100,000 poses a significant obstacle to upward movements.

ETHEREUM (ETH)

ETH is priced at $3430 with a 0.43% gain as of the morning hours. The price is currently trading at 3,428.57 and has pulled back from a short-term resistance level. The gray zone near 3,360 stands out as a potential support area. Staying above this level may increase the probability of the price moving back towards 3,500 levels. In downward movements, 3,248.52 should be monitored as a significant support level. Closing below this level may trigger the price to fall to 3,175.47. In upward movements, a permanent break above 3,500 is required for the price to regain strength and continue its movement above 3,500.

RIPPLE (XRP)

XRP is priced at $1.4470 with a 2.30% gain as of the morning hours. The price is currently trading at 1.4467 and has recently encountered resistance at 1.5227. If this resistance level is exceeded, the price can be expected to rise to 1.6300. However, staying below 1.5227 increases the possibility of a downward correction. When looking at support levels, 1.2775 appears to be an important intermediate support. Below this level, 1.2025 should be monitored as a second support area. In the event of a deeper pullback, the price can be expected to move towards the critical support area at 1.0180.

AVALANCHE (AVAX)

AVAX is priced at $42.11 with a 1.77% increase in value as of the morning hours. AVAX, which rose to $48 yesterday morning, encountered purchases at an important support level along with pullbacks. When the 4-hour chart is examined, if AVAX can stay above the $41.24 support level, it can be expected to retest the $44.20 – $45.25 resistance zone on the upward direction. If these levels are broken, the next resistance level of $48.25 can be tested. In a possible downward movement, the $41.24 – $40.05 level appears as the support zone. If it encounters selling pressure from these levels, a pullback to the $37.75 – $36.56 levels can be expected.

SOLANA (SOL)

SOL is priced at $238.43 with a 1.78% increase in value as of the morning hours. SOL, which continued its decline series yesterday after seeing its all-time high, started the day with a green candle. If the positive trend continues in SOL, which is facing purchases from the support zone, it can be expected that the $248.13 and then $259.94 levels will act as resistance. If these levels are broken, it can be expected to test the peak level of $264.39 again. In a possible downward movement, the $233.34 – $229.39 level band is expected to act as critical support. If these levels are broken, the $221.68 levels can be met with deeper sales. Therefore, it is important for investors to carefully monitor the determined critical support and resistance levels.
